the healing continues.......

Dear family and friends,
Here I am at the Dali Suites in Playas de Tijuana.  I like it here, it is light and airy, and close to the ocean.  Most of the people that are staying here are patients of Dr. Munoz (who is not my primary doctor, but he consults with Dr. Humiston in my case).  Michael is down here with me at the moment, and is feeding me very well to try to increase my weight.  I am trying to eat multiple times throughout the day.  I am getting protein shakes and smoothies in between meals.  My energy level is getting better, although I am still very tired and weak.  I Had a transfusion on Tuesday, and my blood count was the best that it has ever been according to my blood test on Thursday.   My CA125 blood marker continues to lower....this is great news!  Thank you all for the support and healing energy that you have been sending my way.

Love, Carol

Time for a change

Much as I love Sonia and Caroline, we've moved to Dali Suites in Playas Tijuana. It should be a nice change. Tanya is here doing all the work.  

Love,
Carol

Good news!

Dear Family and Friends,

Started the New Castle Virus (nose drops) and then went back on 1/4 Thalidomide.  Also taking SOD Super Oxide Dismutase  (also on the Greek test)

Seth asked the doctor to do fasting blood tests Thursday so we can track the CA 125 cancer marker.  Last week it was 535.  This week it went down to 475!  This is good!

I'm still weak but each day is different.

Love,

Carol

Nice Mothers Day Weekend

Hi Family ad Friends,

The beach at Rosarita was glorious!  The beach house was amazing!

But I spent the time on the couch, sleeping.  Too much Thalidamide.  Possibly too much liquid zeolites too.

So I stopped all meds, and Monday I talked with Dr. Humaston about it.  We'll hold off on the Thalidamide for a while, and I started the New Castle virus on Tuesday.

Bernie is here with me, through Monday.  She is very supportive.  She says I'm looking great.  I'm still feeling tired and weak, but my blood count is holding up.

Thanks for following,

Love,   Carol

Change in supplements

Finally, Dr. Humiston got some samples from Dr. Munoz's office, to muscle test me on.  Michael came yesterday (Tuesday) so he was my muscle for the testing, and we tested everything.

    So last night was my first night on Thalidomide (thank goodness I can't get pregnant!)  Not only does it attack the cancer, but it makes you sleepy!

    Today I get SOD (SuperOxide Dismutase), Artesunate as an IV drip, and liquid zeolight.  Monday, after my weekend with Tanya, Mike, Seth , and Tanya's mom Yolanda, I will start the Newcastle virus. Because I'm losing blood,  I will also take a chinese compound that stops internal bleeding.

    I'm also taking liquid copper, humic compound, thyroid, Candida maintenance... I think that covers my current list!  We're attacking the cancer!  Yea!

   I'm looking forward to the weekend with the family!  Hope you have a happy Mother's Day!

Hugs to you all,

   Carol

Next Blood Transfusion and Greek Test Results

Well, the sonogram idea didn't work, since the machine was only for breast cancer.

The test from Greece is back, and we'll go over the results this week.  Naturally, the cancer responds well to ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), which I get 6 times a week!  It also responds to quercetin, artesunate, Poly-MVA, ellagic acid, mistletoe, superoxide dismutace, amygdalin, and c-statin.

My cousin Patty was here for a few days, and left very pleased with Sonia and the bed and breakfast. She also gave me a manicure and pedicure and a very nice, easy care hair cut.  Tanya is coming next, and then Ellen (sister-in-law) and Darcy (neice).

I needed more blood, so had a transfusion on Thursday for 2 units. It seems to be kicking in slowly.  I can now think, but I am still shuffling slowly instead of dancing.  My appetite is good and the food is good.  Sonia is making me a protein shake for a between meal boost, and still making delicious soups for me (I'm very spoiled).  One of my medicines requires that I have red meat at least 3 times a week, and she is doing that for me too.  Yum!

Well, that's the news!   Seems like I saved it up for you.  I'll keep you informed when my treatment changes now that we have the Greek Test results.

Thanks for your support, and love to you all!   Carol

Cancer is not progressing!

Dear Family and Friends,

The XRay comparison shows no significant change in the lung tumors since February.  This is good news!

Seth is here now, and he and I met with Dr. Munros to consult on the cancer.  Dr. Munros wants me to take a blood test and send it to Greece for analysis.  Altho expensive,  what comes back is a complete analysis of which chemo will work, and which alternative therapies will be effective.  So Monday I am taking the blood test and the results will come back in about 10 days.  We discussed this with my doctor, Dr. Humiston, and we agreed that I will skip the chemo (chemo kills the cells, but we need to be sure the body is healthy, and chemo doesn't do that).  Dr. Humiston says that if I had had chemo, I wouldn't be alive now.

Also on Monday I will get a baseline Sonagram (ultra sound), to make it easier to track changes with the cancer.

So Seth will leave Wednesday, and then Bernie will come and then Patty.  Lot's of company!

Thanks for checking my blog.  My energy level is still low (I am still anemic) and the only pain I have is when the floating tube from the Denver Shunt has gotten out of place.

Love,  Carol
